Have any science images been taken of the night side of Mars? According to this link
https://www.universetoday.com/96576/hirise-...escent-to-mars/ images of the night side were taken in preparation for imaging the Curiosity descent, but they were dumped and not returned to Earth. Night images may have been taken for calibration purposes but I'm not sure if they were returned. Imaging the night side might seem like a waste of time but surprises do happen. Perhaps Aurora phenomena or meteor trails might be seen, or even hotspots, if the imager is sensitive to infrared. |
